But what if you need wallwalk to build an egg?

Ooh, I missed that. But that was also problematic. You can cheat in all the arcade maps.

Mappers can account for that in mission/objective based maps were they might not want wall walking to occur on various walls by setting their surfaces such that wall walking isn’t allowed. Code_Man’s version of Mission One (Mission One Redux) does that.
With that said, the quality of the game play should take priority on what might be considered “conventional” maps for that game play, over the functionality of existing “unconventional” maps. Maps should be designed to fit the game play, not the other way around.
